- hilariously 3mo agoYou a temporarily embarrassed billionaire? Paying their fair share in taxes (corporate and otherwise) is far from "taking all their money away".

- alex43578 3mo agoThe top 1% alone are 40% of the federal income tax receipts. 40% of the population pays 0% in income taxes, often receiving credits and refunds. I’m all for everyone contributing: one side looks like it’s contributing 40% already. How much more do you think should be taken from them to give to the people that currently contribute 0?

- hilariously 3mo agoWhy do you think the top 1% pays that much in tax? Because we impose arbitrary taxes on them or because they get the vast amount of the wealth as well? What's the top income tax bracket? Does it go up to Jeff Bezos levels or does it taper off quite a far amount below that? How much do you value a stable society that doesn't promote mass death? What percentage of the wealthiest's income should we recognize comes from a world that is stable and peaceable because of opportunities for us all?
